Answer:

5.2 x 10^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

To express a number in scientific notation, the digit term and the exponential term must be identified. What is a digit term and an exponential term?

The digit term is a figure from 1 to 10.

The exponential term is a power of 10. The exponent of the exponential term indicates the number of places that the decimal point of the digit term is to be moved from the right or left.

The power of 10 is positive when the number is ten or greater. On the other hand, the power of 10 is negative when the number is smaller than one.

In the given question, the digit term of 52 thousandths is 5.2.

Meanwhile, for the exponential term, the power of ten is -2 because the decimal point in 5.2 must be moved two times to the left to arrive at 52 thousandths (0.052). The exponent is negative because 52 thousandths (0.052) is smaller than one.

Therefore, 52 thousandths in scientific notation is 5.2 x .
